Seems like MLG made a mistake with their NA choices for sure... welcome to the eSports monopoly... I really hope they take some advice from the community because these NA selections are not at all representative of the top "skilled" NA players. More like the top "friends" of MLG's partners in helping esports build... I understand many of the players role in building esports alongside MLG but picking them to represent skill is a really really poor choice.

No HuK for NA surprises the shit out me, seeing as though he's been competing in GSL for months, and he's competed in so many mlg's, anyways, looks like a good lineup though, should be entertaining.

hmm the 1st half of Korean bracket doesnt seem fair to me with Bomber/mvp/Puma/Coca, all look better than MMA(slightly), Boxer,Hero and LosirA
Can someone explain the given seed ? GSL-based or MLG-based ?

Oh god, I am a iNcontrol fan but... it will take so much to get out of his side of the bracket alone. Sheth then mostlikely IdrA.

It looks like it's time for MVP and Bomber to Terranitup! It would be sick if that was the final match for the Korea regionals. Too bad so many NA players turned down the MLG invite, these NA players aren't really the best unfortunately

I like this regional initiative by MLG. Maybe this is a taste of a more global MLG?

destiny? what? how in the world did he get picked?

Also Major? Why is he in it?

I don't understand, both Select and Demuslim have been doing better than them at MLGs.

Can we please get a mod note saying how some players declined invites (such as Huk, Select, and Nestea) due to cross server and time constraints? I feel like it would really help this thread.
